Monday Road Restrictions In Hazlet: Laurel Avenue Roadwork

HAZLET, NJ – Traffic on Laurel Avenue will be restricted on Aug. 10 between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., according to a news release from the township's municipal website.

The imposed traffic restrictions come as final paving work is to be completed on Laurel Avenue. Traffic will be restricted on the street from Middle Road to Laurel Drive.

While the roadwork was previously scheduled for Friday, Aug. 7, the project was postponed due to the closure of Middle Road for clean-up and power restoration after Tropical Storm Isaias.

Area residents who must access their vehicles during the day are asked to relocate them out of the work zone prior to 7 a.m. on Monday, according to the website.

"Please drive with caution during this period. In light of the COVID-19 pandemic, we ask that you please do not approach the crew in the field," reads the post.

Hazlet residents who live on the east side of Laurel Avenue (with the only access to the neighborhood from Laurel Avenue) are asked to move vehicles west of Laurel Avenue to ensure access during the paving project.

Questions can be directed to MECO Asphalt Paving Contractors at (609) 443-4344.
